In addition, the Democratic Party of Korea ratified the resolution to waive the non-arrest privilege of members of the National Assembly belonging to the party.
Democratic Party spokesman Kim Han-gyu met with reporters following the general meeting of lawmakers and said, “We have gathered opinions to set aside the privilege of lawmakers’ non-arrest in response to a legitimate request for a warrant.”
Park Kwang-on, floor leader of the House of Representatives, asked lawmakers to confirm the declaration that “the privilege of non-arrest is waived in case of a legitimate request for a warrant.”
The Democratic Party raised the resolution to waive the privilege of non-arrest as an agenda at the general assembly of the lawmakers on the 13th and tried to ratify it once, but was unable to carry it out due to opposition from some lawmakers.
On the 23rd of last month, the Democratic Party’s “Kim Eun-kyung Innovation Committee” proposed “abandonment of non-arrest privileges for all Democratic Party lawmakers” and “adoption of the party’s argument to pass the motion for arrest” as the first reform proposal on the 23rd of last month.
Earlier, 110 out of 112 members of the People’s Power signed an oath to waive the privilege of non-arrest, and the Democratic Party also resolved to give up the privilege of non-arrest, drawing attention to whether the controversy over the ‘Bulletproof National Assembly’ will be resolved.
